The first workshop focuses on Quality Assessment and post-iAADs (Internal Academic Assessment and Development System) evaluation that tracks the department's academic and extension outputs consistent with its vision and goal. Two other workshops focus on graduate and undergraduate concerns ranging to admission and curriculum mapping. Faculty resources in relation to student demand will be assessed in terms of future recruitment. The graduate program (the current MS Geography and the proposed PhD program in geography) hopes to dip from the deep pool of faculty with PhDs. Finally, professional development including faculty development and succession plans will be reevaluated with the return of faculty with PhDs and new full-time and part-time (at least temporarily) hires.
Staff development involves streamlining everyday administrative tasks. The Department recognizes and appreciates the contribution of the department's non-teaching staff in relation to carrying out the complicated programming of everyday departmental activities.
